As usual in the design of city buses, they have a low profile, where the floor is close to the ground. So they have limitations, not all fields they can pass, and adjustments or modifications needed to outsmart these weaknesses if your goal is to make it an RV.

Fitted a Detroit Diesel Series 50 is an inline four-cylinder diesel engine paired with Allison Automatic Transmission, with 494000 miles on it. No mechanical issue reportedly, it's able to run a million miles ahead.
